[time-nuts] No more 60Hz! TEC Elimination

I predict, with all of my oracle abilities, snort, that the test won't run
no time until there's a law suit. Almost everyone uses battery powered
clocks nowdays, on the wall, and most alarms are digital with xtal
timebases. However, there are still those old foggies who still have
motorized clocks depending on 60Hz to do their duty. If this makes them
obsolete, I wonder if the government is prepared to buy folks replacement
clocks, like they provided the digital receivers for our TV's? Like I said,
I can see a courtroom battle as I write this.

Best,

Will
